London, England, 9 November 2021 – Global data and insights company Pureprofile is proud to announce Georgia Prorok, Business Development Director has been selected as one of 17 Research Heroes, an MRS programme that celebrates individuals who have given exceptional service and forwarded the cause of research during the pandemic.
Through true grit, strength and courage, Georgia has proved to the industry, her colleagues and herself, that she truly is deserving of this accolade. After being hospitalised with Covid-19 in March 2020, Georgia’s condition deteriorated rapidly and the devastating effects of the virus rendered Georgia unable to speak or move as she fell into a coma. She was in intensive care at Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital, London for a full 6 weeks.
Georgia’s continued battle to overcome the many complications and challenges she faced even after regaining consciousness, is a testament to her fighting spirit and determination to survive. Her rehabilitation and commitment to return to her work in the research industry has been an inspiration not only for her colleagues and clients, but also to her industry peers and the wider community.
Business Development Director, Georgia Prorok said: “I’m very grateful to the NHS, and to also have had the continued support from Tim Potter and the Pureprofile family. I wouldn’t be here at this stage of my recovery if it wasn’t for their love and encouragement. I’m very proud to be part of the market research world. I still have a long way to go to full recovery, but I am confident I will reach my goal.”
Managing Director for the UK business, Tim Potter said: “Georgia’s resilience and undeniably strong human spirit is what makes her a very special colleague here at Pureprofile. We are extremely fortunate to have Georgia with us. These are unpredictable times and she has shown that her positivity and determination shines through all areas of her personal life and her commitment to research. Georgia is very much deserving of a Research Hero title.”
